What is Nova Launcher?

Nova Launcher is a graphical shell for mobile Android devices that can be an excellent alternative to the out-of-the-box version. For the basis of this launcher, the developers took the fourth version of the “Green Robot” called Ice Cream Sandwich, moreover, in its stock version without any additions. The fact is that many manufacturers of smartphones and tablets pile up the shells of their devices with unnecessary elements, and this does not suit all users.

The Nova Launcher application has a minimum number of settings, which will appeal to connoisseurs of simplicity and practicality, while the shell looks pretty and works incredibly fast. But the user will still have to work on the visual image of their desktops if they are not satisfied with the stock version, which is a cluster of randomly arranged icons and icons. Pleases in the launcher a large number of options for assigning specific functions to gestures, even more – you can assign an action to shake your smartphone, which is not often found in such tools.

So, Nova Launcher is both flexible in customization and visually elegant, it allows you to create backup copies of user-created configurations so that the next time, for example, after resetting the device to factory settings, you don’t have to bring everything to the desired look for a long time. We recommend that you immediately purchase the commercial version of the product (currently it costs about five dollars), since the free version comes with too limited functionality that does not allow you to unlock the full potential of the first-class graphical shell from TeslaCoil Software.
